I remember that old Magic 8-Ball answer popping up in the little window of the ball. I don't remember the others, but that one popped into the little window of my brain when I saw this photo again. I'm not sure where I took it, but it must be in or near the town of Montlouis, based on the other slides around it. And that little cardboard "Montlouis en fĂȘte" sign is a big clue.
The sky is clear so far this morning. No snow. But it is cold. Brrr. And the mornings will stay around freezing through the weekend, apparently. I'm back to building fires in the wood stove. They keep the living room comfy while reducing our heating fuel use.
The contractor that we engaged to renovate our deck stopped by yesterday afternoon. He and his crew are showing up this morning at 8h00, but not to start work on the deck. Among the other jobs we asked him to do is the repair of a rather large crack in the wall of the garden shed. That's what they're coming today to do. It's progress, for sure. I need to ask him (again) when he thinks the deck will get done. I'd probably have better results asking the Magic 8-Ball.
Toutes directions.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about waiting for things to be done. I ordered new windows for my house in January and it will be May or June before they arrive!
ReplyDeleteSo, is this the same contractor you had originally engaged, who never came to do the job, over and over, or did you finally find someone new? Hoping for the best, this time!
ReplyDeleteconcentrate and ask again.
ReplyDeletechm, that would have been easier.
ReplyDeletebettyann, good luck!
judy, yes, the same one. It's not just us who are experiencing delays. Our neighbor waited 2 years to have a slab of concrete poured.
michael, LOL! Well, that's exactly what I did.
I am glad you caught the Magic 8 ball reference. I worried it was too obscure.
